Geography

The Condamine Kogan Road traverses the locality from south-east (Hopeland / Montrose) to south-west (Nangram /Wieambilla). The Chinchilla Tara Road traverses the locality from north (Greenswamp) to south (Wieambilla).[3] These two roads intersect in roughly the centre of the locality and presumably provide the name for the locality.[3]

Gunbarwood is a neighbourhood (Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.).[4] It presumably takes its name from the Gunbarwood rural property.[5]

The land use is a mixture of dry and irrigated crops and grazing on native vegetation.[4]

Coal seam gas is extracted throughout the locality.[4][6]
